Bar & Restuarant only open Fri & Sat evenings

This is a favourite site due to the bar and clubhouse restaurant so a group of three couples booked to stay from the last Sunday of the October half term for 5 nights. All of the site information states that a carvery is available on Sunday. So it's reasonable to assume it will be open over the half term as the price charged is higher than the next week isn't it? Well you would be wrong!! It is now only open Friday and Saturday evenings. Bit of a blow because the six of us were celebrating a "significant" birthday, so we had a few G & T's prior to heading to the club house for a Sunday evening carvery only to find it closed. We had all had a couple of drinks so were unable to drive to any nearby hostelry!! Nothing was said to us on check in, in fact the check in was very perfunctory! On that very issue we arrived at about 11:30 the site was emptying fast and reception had no customers in it  BUT the site warden refused to check us in and told us to come back in 30 minutes. He also told us we could not park in the night arrival area (or anywhere else) so we could seek out one of the other couples who had arrived the previous night. Now I know the rule is you cannot check in prior to 12:00 but when there is no-one else present, and the staff are behind the counter it does seem somewhat churlish doesn't it. Add to that the fact that there was no notice in reception about the club house being closed (contrary to the info on the club website)  I accept that the above might be viewed as a sad old git having a miserable whinge but when you have booked a specific site because of the facilities that are published as being available and you then find them closed (although the cost does not reflect that fact) and no effort is made to convey that fact, it is a bit galling! Having said that it is still a lovely site in a wonderful location Andy
